Here is a bit of doggerel or curmudgeonly humor inspired
(perspired?) by the swelteringly hot and humid weather:

Skiing in Heaven?
By Mary T. Hoffman (Written 31 July 2006)

I doubt there is skiing in Heaven,
Because they have no snow;
And the “other place” below
Is nowhere I’d like to go.

“Till hell freezes over,”
We’ve all heard people say;
But we can only hope and pray
We’ll never see that day.

For as much as it’s fun to ski,
I sure wouldn’t want to be
In “that place” for eternity
Just for another chance to ski!

"Joyful Curmudgeon"
An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful. At the
same time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the
world, and feel called to help expose and end it so that we may have true
peace and compassion.
